I think others noted that the paint job isn’t the best and I have to agree to an extent, however only the beholder would probably notice!

Pros:
The geometry is slightly tighter than a typical hybrid, but more relaxed than your typical road or track bike. For me this is perfect as most single speeds on the market have a track geometry which is way too aggressive for city riding.
The frame is wonderful to ride. The pinnacle of this bike and a life long friend to be modified and upgraded where needed.
The wheels, though slightly heavy, roll well and have stayed true remarkably long time.
The brakes, tyres and crankset are nothing special but decent quality components which are great for the price.
It looks beautiful.
Customer service is just superb. Thank you Ribble!
Cons:
The layer of paint is fragile and chips at the slightest touch, which is a shame becuase it looked so nice. This is only a cosmetic issue I admit but is a pain.
Handlebar grips and seat aren't the most comfortable, these are the only things I have felt the need up upgrade straight away.
The bolt on the seat post clamp was rusty and missing some thread, which Ribble promptly sent me another, but it concerns me that I made it thought he safety check.
All in all I absolutely love this bike, it is a joy to ride, and great to fly past all those rodies on my super fast single speed!
